Chris Hedges & Kshama Sawant - Workers! Fight Back!

Program Title: Chris Hedges & Kshama Sawant - Workers! Fight Back!
Description: The so-called Department of Government Efficiency, DOGE, is led by Elon Musk, the richest man in the world. It operates in virtual secrecy. Its slash and burn tactics have resulted in thousands of government workers losing their jobs, sometimes with little or no notice. Budgets are being hollowed out to pay for massive tax breaks for the oligarchs. Activist, organizer, politician Kshama Sawant warns, “We cannot understate the damage being done by Trump, Musk and company. It is austerity on steroids, deregulation on steroids, imperialism on steroids” and along with that she says it’s “the most dramatic concentration of executive power” in memory. There’s only one thing that will stop the Trump-Musk juggernaut. Collective citizen action. Workers! Fight Back!

Host(s):
Featured Speakers/Guests: Chris Hedges is an award-winning independent journalist and author of many books. His latest is War is the Greatest Evil. Kshama Sawant served on the Seattle City Council from 2014 to 2024. She’s been called “a warrior for the working class.”
